Fun fact: this was the last ever rerun ep Sci-Fi showed before taking reruns off the air permanently. I remember vividly because I'd been searching for MST3K on TV for ages at the time and was so stoked to find out they'd been running reruns early Saturday mornings; I tuned in, laughed my ass off, and looked forward to next week, only to tune in at the same time and see no MST3K on my TV. Later found out I had the misfortune of finding out about reruns literally the last week they ever ran them.
You can argue about what evil the internet may or may not have done to man, but making MST3K easily accessible has certainly made my life so much better.
Keep circulating the tapes, uh discs, um, links?
😆
Those damned TV execs. MST3k has *not* been loved by any network *fortunate enough* to possess it.
@@cindydott452 😊agreed
Here here!!
@@halfling49 It's even worse than not being loved. Comedy Central refuses to even acknowledge its existence, even though it was their flagship series that pretty much launched the network.
It really didn't take much work. Just sit next to the VCR as the shows originally aired, carefully hitting "pause" when the commercials came on, then store the tapes for ~15 years until the advent of the VCR-to-burnable-DVD console, convert all the VHS tapes to DVD+R, then hold onto them for a few more years until I got a Mac and ripped all the DVDs, and then copied each episode one by one to a thumb drive which I took to work and uploaded from there 'cuz it was faster. So no biggie.
You must love mst3k.
Thank you!
All I did was torrent the DVDs. Your hardcore dude.
Easy-peasy!
Does that explain why I hurriedly put on my dog costume to watch it?
Kevin had to wear a penguin costume. Over a gorilla costume. For us. Bless him.
Under stage lights... yikes
Like wearing a rug over a shag carpet over a heating blanket.
Minnesota winters are cold
The last 4 seasons of Original MST3K was the pinnacle of genius.
Mike Nelson was a game changer.
I love when Bill Corbett (Crow) yells "Can we help you movie lady??!! Do you need a push or...?" It reminds us of when Joel lost it and yelled at Torgo & Manos "Do Something!!!"
I just told my daughter I think that exact same thing every time I watch this episode
TORGO should have put in a guest appearance in the host segments on this one.
EEEENNND! ENNNNNNDDDD!!!!
"Hmmm.. Torgo? My wife? Hmmmm... "
Sometimes they yell at the cameraman or editor
I have to admit, offering to pay for the funeral of anyone who dies of fright watching your movie is a pretty badass promotional stunt.
Love it!!🦇🦇
@Cynthia Clayton How about having the seats wired electrically for "The Tingler" - thus accidentally zapping some audience members with stiff jolts?
For a five year old in 1960 that skull rising in the pond was a guarantee of abject horror. They don't advertise all the little coffins claimed.
Servo: "It's like they had 2 servings of tension that they're trying to stretch out for 7 people."
"Moral of the story: Never get close to anyone...ever"
Good point, Servo
That was also the moral of "The Brain That Wouldn't Die," funnily enough
"It's the robots I hired to do the yard work." I loved the callback to the Gumby short.
I read this just before they said it. Lol coincidenced eh?
"It was a rainy day....."
"And he shot her."
That part always gets me 😂😂
The fear warning before the movie should have played for the Gumby short instead
Gumby is Satan.
@@wadecarmen7501 whose pokey ??
Right? *shivers*
Gumbo's voice is really deep and manly.
the robots run amok and kill everyone like in Westworld.
God bless all of yeh MST3K uploaders. This show was so fantastic.
💜💜💜💜💜
I would never see even a single episode without them
"Flat drab passion meanders across the screen!" I use this almost every chance I get 🤣
This my desert island MST3K movie. I have watched it at least 25 times and the riffing still kills me
My favorite episodes as far as riffing goes are 'Revenge of the Swamp Creature', 'Riding With Death', 'Laserblast', ' Deathstalker and The Warriors From Hell', 'Horror at Party Beach', and 'Time Chasers'.
This is definitely one of my all time favorites.
Ditto. "Devil Fish" kills me everytime too.
@@deimoskaischylos I have not see either one of those, I will need to track them down!
Merlin's Shop of Mystical Wonders, The Touch of Satan, The Leech Woman, Squirm, and Track of the Moon Beast are my top favs!
"And then a lion came out and shot her" - that was hysterical
On the Island of Dr. Moreau it really happened. Also, he could've been referring to a Detroit Lion.
@J is Scoobysmom
Did it sound like gunshots or was it more of a stabbing sound?
it was a rainy day and then he shot her omg lol
At least thats what Eric said. Lol
Lafcadio, is that you?
"Should we call the police?...No we didn't last time!.." Cracks me up every time
I actually just read the short story this is based on last night. It is also called "The Screaming Skull', by F. Marion Crawford and it was published in 1906. Believe it or not, the story is very good, atmospheric and chilling.
Thx for the info I will look it up!
That's what I was about to say.
"Must be the robots I hired to do the yardwork." That line was so random but completely within context of this episode that it gets me laughing every time.
One of my all-time favorites. "We need to talk about a little "me-tossing" incident!"
“ look, I have too agree the skull has been perfectly civil through all of this.”
The movie that dares to graphically depict sometimes seeing peacocks and sometimes not seeing peacocks
They eat peacocks, don't they?
Andrew Frankovic
They bomb horses don’t they?
Peacocks are actually extremely aggressive birds. And are liable to poke your eyes out.
@@andrewfrankovic6821 might be what KFC is.
Yes! Won a best picture oscar for the peacocks!!!🦚🦚🦚🦚🦚🦚🦚🦚🦚🦚
"It was a rainy night...and he shot her." I laughed so hard at that part.
and then a lion jumped out and shot her
@@Kvalln “at least that’s what Eric said” 😂
Plucks a branch from a shrub and hands it to his wife.
"Here's a stick, Honey." 🤣🤣🤣
Was it a gunshot, or more of a stabbing sound?
It's probably my favorite riff of the episode.
"I'm pleasant but I have issues." I feel ya lady. I feel ya.
I'm unpleasant _and_ I have issues.
I want the little Crow and Servo from the Gumby skit.
I love Observer's face as Pearl explains the ridiculous complexities of their prank at the beginning. He goes from smug to self-loathing in a matter of seconds
Favorite ep of MST3K! I love the Mickey stuff, and the line late in the episode: "Shh... Uncle Lady will take care of you. Shhh... Uncle Lady's here." Trivia: the guy who plays Mickey was the film's director!
eff that guy.
29:18 I half expected Mickey to say "this is where the fish lives."
Then Jodi shows up eating a sandwich and mellowing out.
@@RanMouri82 Having the evil grandmother/sister chopping up someone would really have spiced up the movie, though!
One of my classmates died in the kiln today, mother.
That's okay dear! He will be a lovely ashtray!!🦇
Her name was Fawn Liebowitz.
This is the first Bill episode I watched and that line made me instantly become attached to Bill's Crow
I think Jenny and Gumby's mom must get their bras at the same store.
Ikea?
Can anyone else agree one of the best saving graces for this movie is Mickey? I feel like he was one of the better written characters in "The Screaming Skull", given his feelings of sadness about Marion's murder at Eric's hands, and how he likely knows Eric is the one who did it and would do it to Jenni. Sure, it was a different time, *BUT* people with developmental disabilities like Mickey (and myself) are capable of doing and knowing a lot.
Considering that Mickey was played by The Screaming Skull's director Alex Nicol I'm guessing the character may have had some personal significance to him. I also agree with the sympathy angle; he could have played Mickey as a Renfield-type of lunatic but instead gave him a lot of pathos.
...but still, Mickey, GET A BOX!
"I like Mickey...." "nyeh...nyeh heh nyeh"
What was Mickey's job again ?
@@Laceykat66 He was working in the garden
I always feel a little bad for Mickey. He's the one who knows what's going on and no one will listen to him. A classic horror movie character, sure, but uniquely difficult to watch here, I think.
at least an oboe player got a paycheck out of all this horse hockey
👍👍😂
"Patience" is the word you're groping for. And, talking during the movie is the whole point of MST3k - if you're not a fan, that's fine, but you won't find many defenders in this channel.
Mike cracking up every time Gumby opens his stupid mouth in the short kills me
SSSUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURE, MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTHER!!!
Couldn't stop laughing at "Alas poor Yorick she threw him well!"
I gotta admit, near the end when the skeleton lady arrives is kinda scary. Until the part where he throws his stool at her, lol.
Yeah, as bad a movie this is, the part where Jenny walks into the greenhouse and sees Marion's ghost standing at the other end actually sends chills through me. X)
Spoiler alert.....
Xervello I
The film does have some ambiance to it that does work. It's not the worse horror/suspense thriller movie I've seen.
Did we watch the same movie?
I would like to thank you for all your cool work allowing me to see shows I have never seen when I was in the Marines. Thank you, Randall
Mickey is this film`s Torgo.
Haha. I just said that too.
He's a lot cuter, though
Or Willie Loomis
Mickey and Torgo in the original 50 Shades of Grey.
He took better care of the place while the master was away though.
While I'm here I'll give you some other details from the book (interview of Webber, the lead actress). She says the director told her they were going to do a remake of Rebecca! During filming she got the feeling some things were being let go (ie, her hair in getting in someone's face and not re-shot). They were paid $1000 a week for 2 weeks and a percentage (they never got their percentage--lawyers got in the way). She was 3 months pregnant. Mostly she wasn't happy with the way her hair looked.
My... name is... MIckey. I take cAre of the... place while the... MAster's dead wIfe is away.
Mickey is obviously Torgo's cousin
Marc Guerra
I never thought of that, but that is so true!
Nice.
Calvin Maynard This also resembles Manos in that Mickey was played by the director, Alex Nicol. It would've been perfect if he played Eric instead.
ha!
Fun fact: Mickey is played by the director. Also, the pastor's wife is the middle-aged "college student" roommate in the anti-eloping short.
i always thought she were but couldn't find the short! Quite a memorable face
That's why she looked familiar! 😳
@@Eisenwulf666 The short is called "Is This Love?"
No way!! That IS a fun fact!
That puts the jokes about her being her roommate's parents' age in perspective.
I love how Crow takes very little damage from being repeatedly bashed with a driver, and at 1:07:30 Tom’s head just falls off anyway
Honestly, this is the best show of all time. Never noticed the head fall off until this comment. Love the show. New shit with Jonah is just as god damn good. Perfection, across 30 years.
@@simondaniel4028 SO glad that the new episodes are as good as they are. Great stuff
1:07:36
It's ok, not everyone knows how to do it
@@Spalfos The new episodes are horrendously bad. I was so hopeful they would be good, but I can't sit through them.
Does anyone else notice that the more you watch MST3K, the harder is it to tell if someone is actually an ok actor or if MST3K has totally warped your standards for acting? Because I kind of think the actress playing Jenny is pretty good.
She took some abuse from another MST movie but she is pretty good here, while often stuck in motionless scenes
Yes, she was also in "The Space Children", with the creepy kids and the blob from space, which is only a few episodes before this.
Alex Nicol - "Mickey" and also the director here - had a pretty impressive resume, including substantial work under Elia Kazan at the Actor's Studio. Solid Broadway experience performing Tennessee Williams, Clifford Odets, and other major playwrights.
In all honesty, the gumby short was scarier.
Night of the living Gumby....
It is in the top 10 of the creepiest things I've ever seen or heard. I can't believe children of any time period enjoyed it
@@dustincantrell6712 What else was on TV at 5:30 A.M. on Sunday mornings? It beat a test pattern. OHH, wait, am I thinking of Davey and Goliath? AHHHHHHHHHH!!!
Pretty weird and horrifying!!!!👽
@@dustincantrell6712 I loved it as a kid!
This film is all about the inevitable slide into insanity....but enough about the audience!
Lol
Bazing!
Zinger!
“Oh great. She’s playing her Yoko Ono albums.”
How and why would this video receive 99 downvotes? It's exactly what it is.
Keep circling the tapes.
"Ah, so he checks Micky's villa in the south of France."
Mike flailing to defend himself while the bots tell him he has a terrible job is one of the best pieces of acting I've ever seen.
"Mickey's a wide awake Nightmare" 😂
"I love you, Deceased Wife!...I mean, Jenni!" 18:50
"What the hell was THAT?!" 28:48
"Uncle Lady will take care of you." 1:24:13
😂😂😂
"Alas poor yorick she threw him well". As a lover of literature I keeled over laughing at that point.
"It was a rainy day"...and he shot her. Fave line.
"I'm pleasant but I have issues" would be at the top of my dating profile if I had one
i make a point to do a tiny amount of research into the movie itself during each episode. Fun fact: This movie was directed by the guy who played mickey.
No wonder it was so bad!
Hey, interesting! Thank you!
Does the basic plot of this movie remind anyone else of "Gaslighting?" Maybe it's just me...shoot, I found similarities between the plot of "The English Patient" and "Weekend At Bernie's."
yup, the part where he literally tries convincing her that she wasn't seeing the skull that he then picked up himself is the clearest nod to the premise of "Gaslighting" IMO
He is definitely “gaslighting” her, no question
my favorite lines:
"that really squares my breasts"
"look i made a mustache with your hair"
"urgh die die !!"
"ah her favorite symbol; a pyramid ballanced on oranges"
"the movie that dares to graphically depict sometimes seeing peacocks & sometimes not seeing peacocks"
"you looked at marion's grave? nice wife"
"this movie's original title is looking for mickey"
"apparently he killed a cross dressing beekeeper as well"
"wooh prairie dog"
"it's the society for unstrangled wives"
it's the show us your live wife & win a million dollars people"
"bugs bunny sneaking up music"
"he's being compelled to hold a skull against his neck"
"that man never finishes anything"
"& the moral of this story; never get close to anyone ever"
look she's nude, can you at least give me that?
You forgot "time to rotate the hostages "
24:08- 'My wife and I have an understanding'. Priceless.
I laugh at this line every time. 🤣
that Gull wing Mercedes 500SL is the real star of the movie how the hell did they get that for this thing? Renting one was almost impossible even at the time
I've never been much of a car geek, but that is one gorgeous ride.
Even I said "OHH' when the doors opened . . . up.
One of the producers planted skulls and peacocks around the owners house until they agreed to loan it for the film.
How sweeeeet was that!?
They only made 1400 of them ...one in mint condition recently sold for $4.62M at an auction in Arizona...It was first car with true fuel injectors and was fastest car made at the time for public use.. 6 speed, 140-160mph.....windows didn’t roll down and no power steering but one badass ride...
This episode saved me a minor bout of grief in a roundabout way. Had a rough day at work yesterday and was reading a short story anthology to try to cheer myself up. I come to one called "The Beast in the Jungle" and my reaction was "Wait...is this the tragic story she was reading in 'Screaming Skull'? Let me skip to the end and...holy crap, it is! Better come back to this later"
I enjoy a good tragedy, but not when I'm looking for a pick me up lol. Thanks, MST3K!
"I blend in only with myself". Good goddess. I am already giggling. Holy hell, thanks MST3K
The dead wife posed for "Little Debbie" snacks.
"They put a tiny bit of movie in a box and filled the rest with foam peanuts."
I think her husband is gone for most of the movie because he got a letter from his dead wife asking him to come to Silent Hill...
This is my all-time favorite episode!
Hey! I have this on tape. It was originally filmed in Psychorama, and had subliminal images incorporated into the film that were meant to enhance the scariness. According to the box it was banned in 47 countries.
Now I'm curious!
this is one of my favorites from the pearl era. thanks for posting it! i am calling for my free coffin now i died from laughter
Crow (as Mrs. Gumby): That squares my breasts!
Mike (As Mr. Gumby): Thank goodness for internal genitalia!
The riffs on this episode is top 10 mst3k. Funny stuff.
I'm thinking about two-thirds of the film's budget must have been spent on that car, whatever it was.
Mercedes 300SL gullwing.
the worlds first super car. over powered, bad ride,hard to handle, no luggage space, and over priced with goofy doors.. but a beautiful thing to look at.
yep all the super car boxes are ticked..
1954 Mercedes 300sl ..they say only 1400 were made..one sold at auction last year for $4.62 million
apparently he killed a cross dressing bee keeper as well..HAHAHAHA
We see where all the budget went for the movie when an original Gullwing smg Mercedes pulls up. End of movie, everyone go home. Good job. The Screaming Skull, the end.
“My name’s not Eric, ma’am” gets me every time.
the actor who played Mickey and directed this is so good looking, not even his mickey act can disguise it.
It'll be night soon.//Oh, Jenny, Jenny//What?!? It'll be night soon!: one of my favorite riffs
Can we help you, movie lady? 46:36
She's got mosquito netting protecting her bosoms. 31:22.
Gumby Robot Rumpus! My favorite MST3K short!
Crow: MAN, he just scooped his stool up and just threw it at her!!
😆 Crow may have gone too far after that, BUT props for the timing!
Bugs Bunny sneaking up music
Thank goodness for American International Pictures. When you add things up, they provided at least an entire season's worth of material to MST3K. 🥂, Mr. Arkoff!
Admittedly, the movie did manage to nail some creepy atmospheres at certain parts, i confess I was spooked at the part where Jenny (I think?) was alone in the house and looking for the source of the screaming, and the part where the painting screamed as it was being burnt. But then the climax was so over-the-top and ridiculous I was laughing throughout it. The commentary was amazing as usual, and the sketch with skull Crow was amazing.
Dawn Darrell Samaitha I actually thought the part where Jenny finally see’s the ghost in the greenhouse was genuine scary and then they ruin it with the over the top chase.
I have watched this episode with 3 different GFs over the years. And when Eric runs off into town and Jenni stays at the creepy house with the creepy gardener out in the middle of creepy nowhere each of them has said "Yeah, right, like she would stay there by herself. Please".
Gotta love how he constantly brings up his deceased wife, constantly refers to her and reminisces and compares to her. How did he get married a second time? His new wife must have some abysmal self-esteem. XD
Also gotta love the just generally terrible and melodramatic everything.
When the crazy newlyweds first ran into that clergical couple they reminded me of Rosemary's neighbor's in Rosemary's Baby. They had that hungry for anyone quality.
I have to agree with Mike & the bots - it's pretty good at creating scary atmosphere, but when it comes time to transition into actually having a plot, it just... doesn't. It's like a movie that's perpetually stuck in first gear.
Indiana Jenny and the Kingdom of the Screaming Skull
Probably better than Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Chrystal Skull. Don't get me wrong, I like that movie But still...
Don't remind me of that movieeeeee!!!!!
Indiana Skull and the Kingdom of the Screaming Jenny
Indiana Gumby and the Kingdom of the Yardwork Robots
Butterfly Tom Servo is adorable!! I want one!
Hes adorable!! Want one too!!👽
This is one of my most favorite MST3K episodes ever, along with Giant Spider Invasion and Eegah!
Thanks for posting.
28:25 When Crow yells, "GET A BOX!" I laugh every time.
49:25 "Well all right. I guess I'll just go around back and use the pet door."
51:17 "Gandalf's outside, scratching things on the door."
"Lets just say she was riddle with bullets..." "She got shot." "Then a lion jumped out & shot her or at least that's what Eric said." hahha FAVORITE part.
"I'm so bipolar sometimes," is one of my favorite jokes of all time.
They could've been watching an apple decaying instead of the movie.
Thanks for posting! I enjoyed it. This was a B-Version of "Gaslight".
More like the C- or D-version
*fond memories* this was the very first episode of MST3k I ever saw.
"Awwww poor mickey, hes so fine he blows my mind, poor mickey." This is an extremely funny episode! Make sure you guys check out RIFFTRAX and Cinematic Titanic. Fun continues after mst3k ended.
As you say, oh most terrifying of the Elder Gods. *backs away while bowing repeatedly*
"Jenni?" I got your number.
I wonder if I can still apply for my free coffin.
Yes!!
“Remember folks if you die of boredom you do *not* get a free coffin, sorry.”
Now remember, you can only get a free coffin if you die of fright- not boredom
The skull would later get a job singing the theme song for Star Trek: The Original Series.
You changed star trek for me... For the better. Lol
Wait so rich Evans is the skull 💀
"It was a rainy day. Then he shot her."
"I'm gonna lasso me that chipmunk."
"Your wife's gone mental again!"
"Come on you son of a...I mean my son!" LOL so many good lines in this one
Martin Luther is nailing all 95 Theses individually.
Follow up: she eventually gets well, remarries, and has a couple of Space Children.
Who grow up to write the sneaking up Bugs Bunny music. 🤣🤣
She was very happy!!❤
Was she in any other then those two films?
"gets well" is rather subjective...
@@HylianFox3 you missed the joke 🙄 stfu
17:08 "I invite you to join me in marital intercourse."
One of my favorite MST lines ever.
Fun fact: this was the first movie to be filmed using half as much film as movies of similar length. To overcome this great disadvantage, the editor slowed the entire movie down to half the original speed, but he did such a good job hat nobody noticed the long, drawn out moments.
Nobody except mike and crow and servo 😂
1:05:46
With all the mean things the bots have done to Mike, I think they had this coming to them.
Just stopping by to say that I've always appreciated how snarky the descriptions for these uploads were. In the same spirit as the show.
Long story. It has to do with how I recorded the shows, edited the commercials out, converted my VHS tapes to DVD, ripped the DVDs, then uploaded the MP4 videos. It would take a scientist to explain it, but I'm a doctor. Actually, I'm a gynecologist, but this is my lunch hour.
